Tools for the First To Find Hound: Getting Ready for the FTF Race
There are Few Things Better Than a Blank Logbook
Lace up your running shoes, charge your phone or GPS, make sure there’s fuel in your geo-mobile’s tank—it’s time to go on an FTF hunt.
What’s an FTF? It’s the most popular unofficial stat in the geocaching community. It stands for First to Find. To achieve a FTF you must be the first person to sign the logbook after a geocache is published on Geocaching.com.
